Boys Do Cry: Indian Men Confess to Doing ‘Unmanly’ Things in This Twitter Thread

Saheli Sen Gupta, a journalist and writer in Bengaluru, was inspired by a Reddit thread that asked men what they would do if it wasn’t unconsidered ‘unmanly’. She posted the question on her Twitter thread and got a lot of responses from men who wished society wouldn’t judge them for the so-called feminine things they do. A lot of men admitted to crying, grooming themselves, cooking and wearing pink and expressed sadness about the fact that society deems them weak and not masculine for doing so.

Good men of Twitter, what is that one thing YOU do, which is not considered manly by our social standards? RT for karma, and more happiness.
